We understand that In Acumatica, the "estimated lead time" is typically calculated by combining the vendor lead time that is manually entered in the vendor details with any additional lead time days that are manually entered on the inventory line item itself and then displayed as the estimated lead time for that item. Based on the information we've found so far; it seems that the manual process mentioned above is the only option. For companies with large inventories, numbering in the tens of thousands, automating this function is essential.
Our questions are:
- Does Acumatica have logic that automatically calculates estimated lead times.
- If so, how do we go about setting it up?
For example, instead of manually updating the lead time on both the vendor master record and the item master under the vendor tab, is there a way for the system to automatically calculate the average lead time based on PO issue dates vs PO receipt dates?
Our goal is to eliminate the need for customers to manually update these numbers every time the vendors lead time for a particular item changes.
